Rosangela Silvestre: Dancing the Orixa Movement

Master Dance Teacher Rosangela Silvestre on the essence of dancing the movement of the Orixa. Orixas are Afro-Brazilian Gods and Goddesses. Each Orixa represents a different force of nature. For example, the Orixa Oxum is Goddess of the River. She represents beauty and love. Her movement is like water. Interview by Vicky Iskandar during San Francisco’s Power To The Peaceful Festival 2009.
